Description
We are looking for a strong Rust developer to join our trading technology team and build high-performance systems for market making and liquidity provision. You will design, implement, and optimize low-latency components that power our automated market-making strategies across crypto, FX, or traditional markets.
What You’ll Do
Design and implement low-latency market-making engines and liquidity provision logic in Rust
Build and optimize order management, risk checks, inventory management, and quoting systems
Develop high-performance connectivity to exchanges (REST, WebSocket, FIX, or proprietary protocols)
Work on real-time data pipelines, market data handlers, and state management
Profile and optimize for latency, throughput, and memory usage
Collaborate with quant researchers and traders to productionize strategies
Improve reliability, observability, and fault tolerance of the trading stack
Participate in code reviews, architecture discussions, and continuous improvement of the codebase
Requirements
Strong proficiency in Rust (ownership, async, concurrency, unsafe when justified, performance-critical code)
Experience building low-latency or high-throughput systems (trading, HFT, market making, or similar domains preferred)
Solid understanding of market microstructure, order books, market making, and liquidity provision concepts
Experience with networking (TCP, WebSockets, FIX) and binary protocols
Familiarity with concurrency primitives, lock-free structures, and performance profiling tools
Strong computer science fundamentals (algorithms, data structures, systems programming)
Comfortable working in a fast-paced, production trading environment
Nice to Have
Prior experience in market making, prop trading, or crypto/DeFi liquidity provision
Knowledge of exchange APIs (CEX or DEX)
Experience with time-series data, order book reconstruction, or simulation frameworks
Familiarity with risk management systems or position/inventory controls
Exposure to C++ or other systems languages (helpful for interop or legacy systems)
Experience with monitoring/observability stacks (Prometheus, Grafana, etc.)
What We Offer
Competitive compensation + performance-based upside
Opportunity to work on production market-making systems with real impact
High-ownership role with direct influence on architecture and performance
Collaborative team of engineers, quants, and traders
Flexible remote/hybrid work
Apply at the source
